Claudia is the deuteragonist and a survivor of the outbreak in The Walking Dead: The Alien. She is a survivor encountered by Jeffrey Grimes in Barcelona, Spain.
Overview[]
Claudia is a very capable, brave, and optimistic woman. Unlike most, Claudia merely believes that the outbreak is temporary and the world is not ending. Having heard rumors that the American government has learned to contain the outbreak, Claudia plans to get the treatment and bring it back home for her people. She is shown to be able to handle the undead with ease and is very quick-thinking and smart. She also is shown to be very friendly, as she grows a friendship with Jeffrey and the two help each other get to the boat to America, though at the cost of Jeffrey's life.
Pre-Apocalypse[]
Barcelona, Spain[]
Nothing is known about Claudia's life prior to or as the outbreak began, except that she worked as a curator in Barcelona.
Post-Apocalypse[]
Barcelona, Spain[]
She was working as a curator when the apocalypse hit. Her assistant had turned and bitten a security guard at her work before she escaped with a suit of armor. She met Jeffrey Grimes and the two attempted to escape to America on a boat. She fell into the water attempting to kill a zombie, and Jeff saved her life before revealing he was bitten. He tells her to deliver a message to his brother, Rick, but dies before she could know anything more about him. It is currently unknown what has happened to her since.

Trivia[]
- It is hinted in Letter Hacks that Claudia might appear again in the Comic Series.
- This never occurred, however, as the Comic Series ended with Claudia never being heard from again.
- During the online panel Comic-Con at Home, Kirkman jokingly commented upon Claudia's fate: "Claudia was eaten by a whale shortly after the end of that issue, and that's canon."
- However due to the absurdity and low probability of Claudia's confirmed fate, her deceased status is considered to be non-canon.
- In The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners, Jeffrey's same panda backpack can be found, implying Claudia was successful in making it to the states, although what became of her after she got there is still unknown. It is possible this is just an Easter egg, however.
